(b) What is the temperature difference between the hottest and the coldest places among the
above?
(c) What is the temperature difference between Lahulspiti and Srinagar?
(d) Can we say temperature of Srinagar and Shimla taken together is less than the temperature
at Shimla? Is it also less than the temperature at Srinagar?
2. In a quiz, positive marks are given for correct answers and negative marks are given for
incorrect answers. If jack’s scores in five successive rounds were 25, −5, −10,15 and 10, what
was his total at the end?
3. At Srinagar temperature was −5° C on Monday and then it dropped by 2° C on Tuesday. What
was the temperature of Srinagar on Tuesday? On Wednesday, it rose by 4° C. What was the
temperature on this day?
4. A plane is flying at the height of 5000 m above the sea level. At a particular point, it is exactly
above a submarine floating 1200 m below the sea level. What is the vertical distance between
them?

5. Mohan deposits ` 2,000 in his bank account and withdraws ` 1,642 from it, the next day. If
withdrawal of amount from the account is represented by a negative integer, then how will
you represent the amount deposited? Find the balance in Mohan’s accounts after the
withdrawal?
6. Rita goes 20 km towards east from a point A to the point B. From B, she moves 30 km towards
west along the same road. If the distance towards east is represented by a positive integer
then, how will you represent the distance travelled towards west? By which integer will you
represent her final position from A?

10. A water tank has steps inside it. A monkey is sitting on
the topmost step (i.e., the first step). The water level is
at the ninth step:
(i) He jumps 3 steps down and then jumps back 2
steps up. In how many jumps will he reach the
water level?
(ii) After drinking water, he wants to go back. For
this, he jumps 4 steps up and then jumps back 2
steps down in every move. In how many jumps
will he reach back the top step?
(iii) If the number of steps moved down is
represented by negative integers and the
number of steps move up by positive integers,
represent his moves in part (i) and (ii) by completing the following:
(a) −3 + 2 − .......... = −8 (b) 4 − 2 + ........ = 8
In (a) the sum ( −8) represent going down by eight steps. So, what will the sum 8 in (b)
represent?
 Class –VII Mathematics (Ex. 1.1)
Answers

1. (a) The temperature of the places marked on it is:

Places Temperature Places Temperature
Bangalore o
22 C Srinagar –2oC
Ooty 14oC Lahulspiti –8oC
Shimla 5oC
(b) The temperature of the hottest place Bangalore = 22oC
The temperature of the coldest place Lahulspiti = –8oC
Difference = 22oC – (–8oC) = 22oC + 8oC = 30oC
(c) The temperature of Srinagar = –2oC
The temperature of Lahulspiti = –8oC
Difference = –2oC + (–8oC) = –2oC –8oC = 6oC
(d) The temperature of Srinagar and Shimla = 5oC + (–2oC) = 5oC –2oC = 3oC
The temperature at Shimla = 5oC
Therefore, 3oC < 5oC
Thus, temperature of Srinagar and Shimla taken together is less than the temperature at
Shimla.
Now, Temperature of Srinagar = –2oC
Therefore, 3oC > –2oC
No, it is not less than the temperature at Srinagar.

2. Jack’s scores in five successive rounds are 25, −5, −10,15 and 10.
Total marks got by Jack = 25 + ( −5) + ( −10 ) + 15 + 10
= 25 – 15 + 25 = 35
Thus, 35 marks are got by Jack in a quiz.

3. On Monday, temperature at Srinagar = –5oC

On Tuesday, temperature dropped = 2oC
∴ Temperature on Tuesday = –5oC – 2oC = –7oC
On Wednesday, temperature rose up = 4oC
∴ Temperature on Wednesday = –7oC + 4oC = –3oC
Thus, temperature on Tuesday and Wednesday was –7oC and –3oC respectively.
4. Height of a place above the sea level = 5000 m
Floating a submarine below the sea level = 1200 m
∴ The vertical distance between the plane and the submarine = 5000 + 1200 = 6200 m
Thus, the vertical distance between the plane and the submarine is 6200 m.
5. Deposit amount = ` 2,000 and Withdrawal amount = ` 1,642
∴ Balance = 2,000 – 1,642 = ` 358
Thus, the balance in Mohan’s account after withdrawal is ` 358.
6. West Û Û Û East
C O A B
According to the number line, Rita moves towards east is represented by a positive integer.
But she moves in opposite direction means Rita moves west, is represented by negative
integer.
Distance from A to B = 20 km
Distance from B to C = 30 km
Distance from A to C = 20 – 30 = –10 km
Thus, Rital is at final position from A to C is –10 km.
7. (i) Taking rows 5 + (–1) + (–4) = 5 – 5 = 0
(–5) + (-2) + 7 = –7 + 7 = 0
0 + 3 + (–3) = 3 – 3 = 0
Taking columns 5 + (–5) + 0 = 5 – 5 = 0
(–1) + (–2) + 3 = –3 + 3 = 0
(–4) + 7 + (–3) = 7 – 7 = 0
Taking diagonals 5 + (–2) + (–3) = 5 – 5 = 0
(–4) + (–2) + 0 = –6
This box is not a magic square because all the sums are not equal.

(ii) Taking rows 1 + (–10) + 0 = 1 – 10 = –9

(–4) + (–3) + (–2) = –7 – 2 = –9
(–6) + 4 + (–7) = –2 – 7 = –9
Taking columns 1 + (–4) + (–6) = 1 – 10 = –9
(–10) + (–3) + 4 = –13 + 4 = –9
0 + (–2) + (–7) = 0 – 9 = –9
Taking diagonals 1 + (–3) + (–7) = 1 – 10 = –9
0 + (–3) + (–6) = –9
This box is magic square because all the sums are equal.
8. (i) Given: a = 21, b = 18
We have a − ( −b ) = a + b
Putting the values in L.H.S. = a − ( −b ) = 21 − ( −18 ) = 21 + 18 = 39
Putting the values in R.H.S. = a + b = 21 + 19 = 39
Since, L.H.S. = R.H.S Hence, verified.
(ii) Given: a = 118, b = 125
We have a − ( −b ) = a + b
Putting the values in L.H.S. = a − ( −b ) = 118 − ( −125 ) = 118 + 125 = 243
Putting the values in R.H.S. = a + b = 118 + 125 = 243
Since, L.H.S. = R.H.S Hence, verified.
(iii) Given: a = 75, b = 84
 We have a − ( −b ) = a + b
Putting the values in L.H.S. = a − ( −b ) = 75 − ( −84 ) = 75 + 84 = 159
Putting the values in R.H.S. = a + b = 75 + 84 = 159
Since, L.H.S. = R.H.S Hence, verified.
(iv) Given: a = 28, b = 11
We have a − ( −b ) = a + b
Putting the values in L.H.S. = a − ( −b ) = 28 − ( −11) = 28 + 11 = 39
Putting the values in R.H.S. = a + b = 28 + 11 = 39
Since, L.H.S. = R.H.S Hence, verified.
9. (a) ( −8 ) + ( −4 ) ( −8) − ( −4 ) ⇒ −8 − 4 −8+ 4
⇒ −12 −4 ⇒ −12 < − 4
(b) ( −3) + 7 − (19 ) 15 − 8 + ( −9 ) ⇒ −3 + 7 − 19 15 − 8 − 9

⇒ −101 − 159 ⇒ −101 > − 159
10. (i) He jumps 3 steps down and jumps back 2 steps up. Following number ray shows the
jumps of monkey:

First jump = 1 + 3 = 4 steps Second jump = 4 – 2 = 2 steps

Third jump = 2 + 3 = 5 steps Fourth jump = 5 – 2 = 3 steps
Fifth jump = 3 + 3 = 6 steps Sixth jump = 6 – 2 = 4 steps
Seventh jump = 4 + 3 = 7 steps Eighth jump = 7 – 2 = 5 steps
Ninth jump = 5 + 3 = 8 steps Tenth jump = 8 – 2 = 6 steps
 Eleventh jump = 6 + 3 = 9 steps
He will reach ninth steps in 11 jumps.
(ii) He jumps four steps and them jumps down 2 steps. Following number ray shows the
jumps of monkey:

Thus monkey reach back on the first step in fifth jump.

(iii) (a) −3 + 2 − 3 + 2 − 3 + 2 − 3 + 2 − 3 + 2 − 3 + 2 − 3 + 2 − 3 + 2 = −8
(b) 4 − 2 + 4 − 2 + 4 − 2 + 4 − 2 = 8

Thus, Mohan gets 8 marks in a class test.
(ii) Reshma gets marks for five correct questions = 5 x 5 = 25
She gets marks for five incorrect questions = 5 x (–2) = –10
Therefore, total score of Resham = 25 + (–10) = 15
Thus, Reshma gets 15 marks in a class test.
(iii) Heena gets marks for two correct questions = 2 x 5 = 10
She gets marks for five incorrect questions = 5 x (–2) = –10
Therefore, total score of Resham = 10 + (–10) = 0

8. Given: Profit of 1 bag of white cement = ` 8

And Loss of 1 bag of grey cement = ` 5
(a) Profit on selling 3000 bags of white cement = 3000 x 8 = ` 24,000
Loss of selling 5000 bags of grey cement = 5000 x ` 5 = ` 25,000
Since Profit < Loss
Therefore, his total loss on selling the grey cement bags = Loss – Profit
= 25,000 – 24,000
= ` 1,000
Thus, he has lost of ` 1,000 on selling the grey cement bags.
(b) Let the number of bags of white cement be x.
According to question, Loss = Profit
∴ 5 x 6,400 = x x 8
5 × 6400
⇒ x= = 5000 bags
8
Thus, he must sell 4000 white cement bags to have neither profit nor loss.

2. (a) Given: a ÷ (b + c) ≠ ( a ÷ b) + ( a ÷ c)
a = 12, b = −4, c = 2
Putting the given values in L.H.S. = 12 ÷ ( −4 + 2 )
 −1  −12
= 12 ÷ ( −2 ) = 12 ÷   = = −6
 2  2

 4 
Since, L.H.S. ≠ R.H.S.
Hence verified.
(b) Given: a ÷ (b + c) ≠ ( a ÷ b) + ( a ÷ c)
a = −10, b = 1, c = 1
Putting the given values in L.H.S. = −10 ÷ (1 + 1)
= −10 ÷ ( 2 ) = −5
 Putting the given values in R.H.S. = [ −10 ÷ 1] + ( −10 ÷ 1)
= −10 − 10 = −20
Since, L.H.S. ≠ R.H.S.
Hence verified.

3. (a) 369 ÷ 1 = 369 (b) ( −75 ) ÷ 75 = ( −1)

(c) ( −206 ) ÷ ( −206 ) = 1 (d) ( −87 ) ÷ ( −1) = 87
(e) ( −87 ) ÷ 1 = −87 (f) ( −48 ) ÷ 48 = −1
(g) 20 ÷ ( −10 ) = −2 (h) ( −12 ) ÷ ( 4 ) = −3

4. (i) ( −6 ) ÷ 2 = −3 (ii) 9 ÷ ( −3) = −3

(iii) 12 ÷ ( −4 ) = −3 (iv) ( −9 ) ÷ 3 = −3
(v) ( −15) ÷ 5 = −3

5. Following number line is representing the temperature:

The temperature decreases 2oC = 1 hour

1
The temperature decreases 1oC = hour
2
1
The temperature decreases 18oC = × 18 = 9 hours
2
Total time = 12 noon + 9 hours = 21 hours = 9 pm
Thus, at 9 pm the temperature would be 8oC below 0oC.

6. (i) Marks given for one correct answer = 3

Marks given for 12 correct answers = 3 x 12 = 36
Radhika scored 20 marks.
Therefore, Marks obtained for incorrect answers = 20 – 36 = –16
Now, marks given for one incorrect answer = –2
Therefore, number of incorrect answers = ( −16 ) ÷ ( −2 ) = 8
Thus, Radhika has attempted 8 incorrect questions.
(ii) Marks given for seven correct answers = 3 x 7 = 21
Mohini scores = –5
 Marks obtained for incorrect answers = = –5 – 21 = –26
Now, marks given for one incorrect answer = –2
Therefore, number of incorrect answers = ( −26 ) ÷ ( −2 ) = 13
Thus, Mohini has attempted 13 incorrect questions.

7. Starting position of mine shaft is 10 m above the ground but it moves in opposite direction so it
travels the distance (–350) m below the ground.
So total distance covered by mine shaft = 10 m – (–350) m = 10 + 350 = 360 m
Now, time taken to cover a distance of 6 m by it = 1 minute
1
So, time taken to cover a distance of 1 m by it = minute
6
1
Therefore, time taken to cover a distance of 360 m = × 360 = 60 minutes = 1 hour
6
(Since 60 minutes = 1 hour)
Thus, in one hour the mine shaft reaches –350 below the ground.
